Dippy - Meant to add I'm always over cautious about chicken pox in case people I could be meeting are pg and haven't had it iyswim.

Have just seen a job on the job centre site for an Adult Chat Host!!! Shall I go for it?!?!

oooggs · 15/02/2008 20:31

right car seats: the rear facing I have are up to 29lbs and the forward facing are 20lbs - 40lbs (still need to buy one).

need to get dts weighed just to check, but both under 29lbs at the moment, don't even think Erin weighs 20lb yet.

Just found where the one I want is cheapest with free delivery but my goodness aren't they expensive - I know you can't put a price on life, just thankful I don't need two .

Whats everyone else doing?

elkiedee · 15/02/2008 20:37

Can you do that from home Pesha?

geordiemacminx · 15/02/2008 20:41

Oooggs - I got C a Maxi Tobi from the Glasgow pram centre - £99, its £170 in Mothercare at the moment?

Ange - knees are ok, no pain. Havent been out running since I hurt them, although I'm gonna have to start... soon... ish..

Pesha · 15/02/2008 20:42

I can indeed Elkie it seems perfect! Apart from having to talk about sex all day, I think I'd get bored!

Still it cant be worse than selling windows can it...?

AngeG · 15/02/2008 20:46

lol at getting bored talking about sex all day

Glad the knees are ok GMM, good luck with the training!

Oooggs - I have the britax duo isofix for J which we will use for Izzy if she ever weighs enough!!

StealthPolarBear · 15/02/2008 20:58

hi

oooggs · 15/02/2008 21:01

ange thats what we had for ds1 and will use it for one of dts another one is going to cost me £134.99 here unless anyone can find it cheaper - more annoyed that it isn't in the same colour fabric as last time I know it doesn't matter but it will just give them something to fight over

oooggs · 15/02/2008 21:05

we had this colour last time - wonder if I could get it cheap and get her to send just the cover to me?

may put a want on the wanted board

cazboldy · 15/02/2008 21:08

Ooogs - well remembered

James
Caitlin
Harry
Charlie
and
Molly

oooggs · 15/02/2008 21:09

nice names - thank you caz (especially James )

AngeG · 15/02/2008 21:21

Good idea oooggs put a want on the board. Haven't got the cover you're after otherwise I would have swapped with you! Can't find it cheaper I'm afriad.

CaptainDippy · 15/02/2008 21:24

Aw, lovely name Caz - just for the record - how old were you when you had James and how old were you when you got Wed - I've just been telling my DH how amazing you are!!

Have friends who say they will take P for the day - do you we think that is best or do we take her!!? Consensus, please!!?

AngeG · 15/02/2008 21:27

Are you taking DD1 &2?

AngeG · 15/02/2008 21:47

I think if you're going with DD1 and 2 anyway I'd be tempted to leave P and enjoy the time you have with the other two. It would probably depend again on how she was in herself.

Off for a shower now.
Night all xx

cazboldy · 15/02/2008 22:03

amazing Dippy, or crazy?

I was 15 2 months before he was born, and I got married when I was 16. I was 16 on the 31st of August, and we got married on the 31st of January. 10 years ago

I think they are nice names

I wanted to call James, Seamus originally, but dh wouldn't have it....am quite glad now actually - hence James

Caitlin was a joint choice

Harry was dh's choice, and I didn't actually like it at the time, but it suits him - cheeky little monkey

and Charlie and Molly were family decisions really

Do all of yours have middle names, you lot?

James' is Andrew (after dh)
Caitlin's is Ruth (same as mine)
Harry's is David (dh's dad)
Charlie's is Stephen, Benjamin (he has 2...we were supposed to be using up all the names, as he was the last one after my dad and my brother)
and Molly's is Jessie (after mine and dh's Nanna's)

StealthPolarBear · 15/02/2008 22:07

OMG caz you were so young!
(I'm sure you needed me to point that out )
Right, off to bed, after folding some washing (I really am this time...)
Bathroom should be finished tomorrow so I'll be able to dig our bed out from the thick layer of dust andhvae a hoover. I'm sick of sleeping in filth!

StealthPolarBear · 15/02/2008 22:08

goodnight xx

cazboldy · 15/02/2008 22:16

thanks Spb
g'night

elkiedee · 15/02/2008 22:21

Goodnight. I should go to bed as dp has to leave for work at 7 tomorrow.

PillockOfTheCommunity · 15/02/2008 22:27

I am in the process of dying my hair
not sure it's going well tbh

OP posts:
elkiedee · 15/02/2008 22:28

What colour? Hope it works out ok!

PillockOfTheCommunity · 15/02/2008 22:30

back to my natural blonde, I've been dark for the past year or so. I have to get rid of the dark dye first which is the bit I've done, then dye it a shade of blonde. It's looking very scary at the moment but I'm really really hoping it looks ok once the blonde goes on!

OP posts:
oooggs · 15/02/2008 22:33

caz mine are:

James Aaron (both chose 1st name, dh choice on middle name)

Erin Grace (both chose 1st name, my choice middle name)

Jack Nathan (not sure where 1st name came from but we like it and it suits him (wasn't on short list) middle name dh's choice)

twins girls would have been Erin Leigh & Grace Lily (hence where Grace came from)

right late night for me! so off to bed now

ellie hope hair turns out how you want it to, never been brave enough to dye mine
